Came in looking for some sort of breakfast before hitting a whale watching tour. A lot of the other local restaurants had more than a 30 minute wait. So I ordered their breakfast burrito which has eggs, cheese, bacon, hashbrowns and usually salsa but I had that taken off. It was very fulfilling. The type of hashbrowns. They used also included peppers and onions, which gave it a little bit of a flavor. Definitely worth the price.

Went on a Thursday evening in early March. Friendly greeting immediately when we walked in. Not busy. Nice set up. Lots of TVs. We ordered the thin crust pizza for take out. Cheese on one half and sausage/mushrooms on the other. Our order was ready in the time we were told - 20 minutes. The crust was definitely thin, liked the crunch around the edge. Slim on sauce and not a super punchy taste to the sauce. Plenty of cheese and toppings. Overall good pizza. Would have like more sauce. This area is pretty saturated with pizza places.

Thanks to Bud and his crew who took extra special care of my large corporate of over 20 people yesterday. We ordered food before arrival and they had almost everything ready right on time. Super friendly service too. See you again soon.

My salad was okay, pretty bland, though. It needed something to make it tastier. The wagyu Burger was excellent as was the mac and cheese. The Mac and Cheese and the mango lemonade carried the whole meal.Our server was attentive and kept checking back in on us.They're under construction/remodel so the patio doesn't currently have any kind of coverage. We really wanted to sit outside, so we dealt with the sun.We did not have to wait at one p.m. on a Sunday!

Food is great and vibes are great at this place. Made everyone feel super welcomed for the football games. Paying off a QR code I am a big fan of. Super nice and helpful service. Only reason 4 is cause it's pricey to make your own pizza especially when that's only way to do pizza.

Not a normal review since first visit was Buffalo Bills-KC Chiefs playoff game. Very crowded and loud, still it was fun, GREAT food and the service people are unbelievably pleasant, especially given the circumstance of the game and crowd. All food came out piping hot - that's a great testament right there (all 6 items were fresh out of the cookers!!). And the food was really, really tasty. Buffalo Wings, all three flavors, were perfectly cooked, crispy and good spice. Pizza was crazy good, and I am super critical about pies. The Detroit style pizza won the show, though one small piece was all I could eat, the flavor was out of this world. Not a super fancy place for sure - it's a pub/grill, but everything was good or great & staff made it that much better.

Great place. Walking distance after a boat ride. We did the Cristmas Lights boat at 4:30. Got a sunset and beautiful lights, then walked to Cruisers. Great pizza and wings. Multiple TV screens with sports.

It was a different kind of experience for us. It had the atmosphere of a restaurant, but you had to order and pay at the bar. It was not busy or crowded, so it worked out well for us. I wonder how crazy it is when the place is busy. Overall, the food was good, and the service was satisfactory. I would go back again when I'm in the area.

Stopped for a quick bite before our Christmas lights boat tour in the harbor, and it was great. Typically, I don't eat pizza, but we needed something quick, and let me tell you, I'm glad we did.We ordered a large pepperoni thin crust pizza, 2 buffalo wing orders, single serve mac and cheese, garlic fries, tenders, and a chicken Cesar salad... all were delicious. The mac and cheese was excellent.We were in and out in an hour. The service was great. The very friendly staff came back to check on us several times.Pineapple Paloma was tasty. Great place... but don't take my word for it. Go check them out.

I came from out of town and the service was absolutely horrible. First of all, the food and drinks took forever. I have never seen this before, but instead of bringing plates to the kitchen, the bus boy carried the trash can into the restaurant. Horrible and extremely unprofessional!

The drinks are good, but the food was pretty mediocre. The fries were cold
